strange, that behaves differently in my case. On my laptop using firefox i get redirected to the webapplication of telegram (https://web.telegram.org/#/im?p=@SearchAroundBot). On my phone it opens the telegram application.

It seems that this is not yet the default behavior in all browsers/OSs.

You may want to create an account on telegram (i.e., on the web interface https://web.telegram.org) and manually add the user SearchAroundBot.

This is some related discussion https://forum.palemoon.org/viewtopic.php?t=9873

Best,
Federico
